Sailing: The World Is Wondrous When You Explore It Together
Sailing: The World Is Wondrous When You Explore It Together
There is a particular feeling that belongs to open water. The horizon in every direction, the wind doing what it wants, the sense that the world is larger than you remembered and that this is a good thing.
Jean-Pierre Weill painted that feeling.
The Work
Sailing is a 3D painting on glass from Jean-Pierre Weill Studios. A figure stands on the bow of a sailboat, binoculars raised, looking ahead at the open sea. A woman sits below in the boat. The sail catches the light, the sea and warm sky meeting at the horizon. Built in layers behind the glass, the scene moves even when it is still. Sailing is an exciting adventure, especially when you are exploring with someone you love.
A Gift for the Explorer
Sailing works as a travel gift, an anniversary gift for a couple who loves adventure, or nautical wall art for anyone who feels most alive near the water.
Collectors drawn to the spirit of Sailing may also find that quality in Rendezvous, where a man goes out of his way to reach the person he loves, and in Beginnings, where two figures set off together and everything is still possible.
